Summary
Mixing dramatic vignettes with interviews, this program examines emotional abuse directed at women by their male partners. It's not about arguing or disagreeing; it is about chronic criticism, verbal degradation, intimidation and isolation imposed on women to keep them in a socially and emotionally unsupported position. The aim, and the result, is to wear down and destroy women's self-esteem and their spirit. Both male and female viewers learn the basis for this kind of behavior in males. Tools for confronting and ending this type of abusive behavior and the treatment options available for abusers are covered
